Five Flags goes "Hollywood"!!!

Rookie driver Taras "Hollywood" Hodivsky, Jr will be making his debut at Five Flags Speedway this friday night in the new and exciting ProTruck class. Hodivsky,the nephew of past champion Tommy Rollins and grandson of NASCAR great Shorty Rollins is set to bring his #99 Chevrolet Silverado to what he calls his home track. "We're really excited about this new truck class, and thanks to the Bryant family we have the opportunity to come out and put on a good show for these fans. It wasn't long ago that I was sitting in these very grandstands,and we've worked really hard to try and put this race team together in a very short time span". In his very first race last week in Mobile "Hollywood" started the race shotgun to the field in 11th position and drove to a 6th place finish in the 25 lap feature. Not you're prototypical "young gun" rookie it's takin awhile for him to pick up the "family business". When asked about it Hodivsky replied: "Its been a long time coming"!
